The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on how many windows, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Sutton Scotney, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Each surround is checked first.
- The joint is raked out and cleaned.
- Large voids are packed out.
- New sand mastic is applied and shaped by hand.
- The finish is dressed neatly.

Advice
Sand mastic for homes and businesses in Sutton Scotney
Fresh sand mastic forms a skin quite soon but full hardening takes longer. Traditional guidance is not to paint over it and we’ll advise if you are redecorating. If you have gaps between timber frames and stone or brick and old sand mastic that has cracked, crumbled or fallen out, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Sutton Scotney, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Why act early in Sutton Scotney
Gaps round a sash window let in rain and draughts. Water can get to the frame and the masonry so renewing it early protects the window. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Sutton Scotney, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.

Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Can you replace silicone on a period window with sand mastic?
Yes, it’s a common request. All the old silicone is removed first so the mastic beds in well.
